He uncovered civilizations dating back 5,000 years, including best-preserved Roman architecture.

This is supposedly the place of battle between the Greeks and the Trojans. Little actually remains of the various layers of a continually inhabited spot.
The area was previously dug up by amateur archeologists who effectively destroyed the various layers of inhabitation. The water system in the area has silted up. As a result, there is little "feel" of what...

One of the most interesting ancient cities in turkey. Dont expect to see too much but its amazing by its history and exciting by the feeling it gives you to see where those heroes lived and fough and fought for what actually!

We had a great tour director was very knowledgeable in explaining the facts from legends, from an archaeological perspective, as well as the legend of the Trojan horse, Homer and...

Troy is an open-air museum displaying the nine levels of the city of Troy. The ruins are well-preserved and excellently displayed. There are information tables and clear signs. The museum is in a beautiful location, 30 km from the town of Canakkale. Recommended.

History buffs will love this! For those not quite up on their ancient history, best to go with a guide for a more in depth look. It's an archeological excavation site, so I found it hard to understand without our guide pointing things out to us.
There is a replica of the Trojan horse you can go up in. There...
